END OF OVER:

  • Delano Potgieter32 (17b)
  • Dewald Brevis44 (30b)
  • Kwena Maphaka4-0-49-0
  • Mitchell Owen1.5-0-29-0

Harald : "Maphaka's first and last balls were 5w. 189/4 would read a bit better."

7.10pm So thanks to Brevis, and a wrong umpiring call, MICT finish with 199 for 4. Can Royals chase it down? We will be back soon to find out.

19.6
2
Maphaka to Potgieter, 2 runs, dragged towards deep midwicket for a couple
19.6
5w
Maphaka to Potgieter, 5 wides, a bouncer but it's too high and sails over the batter. Karthik leaps and gets his hands to it but ends up parrying it for five wides
19.5
3
Maphaka to Brevis, 3 runs, full on the stumps. Backs away and digs it out towards short third who gets a hand to it but fails to make the stop. And they come back for the third
19.4
1
Maphaka to Potgieter, 1 run, slower short ball outside off. Mistimed behind point
19.3
4
Maphaka to Potgieter, FOUR, another slower one. Dragged towards deep midwicket for a one-bounce four
19.2
2
Maphaka to Potgieter, 2 runs, a slower one and Potgieter smashes it towards deep midwicket where Owen leaps, gets his hands to it and flicks it back as he realises the momentum would take him over the boundary line
19.1
0
Maphaka to Potgieter, no run, a slower one. Length but wide outside off. A swing and a miss

  • Mitchell Owen1.5-0-29-0
  • Mujeeb Ur Rahman4-0-25-0

Luke: "There you go, one poor umpire decision has now potentially had a huge impact on the outcome of this game. Shouldn't be happening at this level."

18.6
6
Owen to Brevis, SIX, a one-handed catch in the crowd and Brevis gives a thumbs up! And it was by a guy wearing MI Cape Town t-shirt. It's all happening out there. A length ball around off and Brevis smashes it over long-on for his fourth six
18.5
1
Owen to Potgieter, 1 run, full around off. Digs it towards long-off

RR fan: "they could have bowled phehlukwayo as well, i think he would have been a better option than owen for sure"

18.4
4
Owen to Potgieter, FOUR, full and wide. Throws his bat at it and gets it to the other side of short third
18.3
4
Owen to Potgieter, FOUR, a length ball around off. Just opens the face of the bat to run it between the keeper and short third
18.2
6
Owen to Potgieter, SIX, a short ball around off. Was an offcutter. Potgieter clubs it over deep midwicket

Owen will finish the over

18.2
5nb
Galiem to Potgieter, (no ball) FOUR, a high full toss down the leg side. Helped on its way to the fine leg boundary. Clearly a no-ball this one, which means Potgieter has now bowled two beamers and would have to be taken off the attack. Miller is still having a chat with the umpire
18.1
1
Galiem to Brevis, 1 run, full and wide. Dragged towards midwicket

Galiem is back

Ben Brettell : "The way the ball came onto the bat in the first six overs, I'd imagine Mitch Owen is licking his lips."

17.4
0
Mujeeb Ur Rahman to Brevis, no run, goes for the slog sweep but this one is slower through the air and hits Brevis on the body

Noushad Shahin: "Is Reeza injured in the dugout..?" --- Think it might be to do with the left-right combination

Mujeeb Ur Rahman to Brevis, SIX, shuffles in his crease and launches it down the ground for a massive six

Brendan : "No ball tracking to check for a waist-high no-ball? Not only could've it been a wicket, but resulted in a free-hit six. The margins are so fine in T20. That call could decide PR's season"

16.6
0
Maphaka to Potgieter, no run, a slower length ball, wide outside off. Potgieter leaves it alone but it turns in, just inside the wide guideline
